To Sia

Since 2017, I have learned about Sia. The advantages of cloud storage based on blockchain have attracted me, especially the CND function. We all know that the main cost of cloud storage is traffic, and Sia is the best in this field.If the project is successful, it will change the world. This goal is worth a lifetime of energy.

Sia's progress is too slow. 4 years after the first release, there is still no prototype of a product available. No one company actually adopts SIA. It is understandable that SIA's R&D staff should be less than 5 people. And need a lot of energy in the research of complex blockchain technology, there is not much experience in file storage and management. The combination of blockchain and cloud storage must be very complicated. The two co-founders of the SIA, which are hundreds of millions of dollars worth of projects, are busy writing code. This is respectable, but SIA needs more experienced and excellent R&D personnel. The founders should spend more time solving financial and human resources. problem. Only when the available products are launched as soon as possible can we get the recognition of more investors, and the sales volume and price of the mining machine can be improved to form a benign cycle.

On reddit, I talked with Luke about the US mechanism. but there may be very few people in the community who understand file storage technology.I sincerely hope that Luke can abandon the current US idea and rethink the management of metafile information.

introduce myself:

I am the co-founder of aimicoud corporate network disk, I am in China. Since 2014, my friends and I have built a file system based on object storage in C++. We call it EmlyFS internally, and it is not open source. Based on EmlyFS, we have created a corporate network disk product to provide storage and management of private files for enterprises. EmlyFS is a stand-alone file system that uses Sqlite to manage metafile information and block indexing. It stores data blocks in a custom format into a fixed-size bucket file without any external environment dependencies. It can store and manage hundreds of terabytes or tens of millions of files and maintain good performance. Searching in the index field of millions of file meta-information usually takes only about 10 milliseconds . Support most file system functions, For example: file basic operations (additions and deletions, copy, copy, move, merge, list, search, classification, conditional sorting, etc.), file resume, folder resume, second pass, edit lock, outer chain, file version control, recycling Station, inbox, operation record, etc. EmlyFS is currently operating stably in thousands of companies in China.
